Marilyn Manson wade into US presidential debate

Marilyn Manson, both the band and their eponymous frontman, have never been known to mince their words, and their latest exploits are no exception.

During an interview on the red carpet of the 2009 Scream Awards in Los Angeles this past Saturday (October 18) the band waded into the US presidential debate by branding the Republican party's vice presidential candidate and Alaska governor "a whore".

When asked by one interviewer what he thought of Sarah Palin, the Double M replied:

"I haven't slept with her and I wouldn't. And I don't really care for Alaska."

When another interviewer attempted to ask a question about the horror movie awards ceremony they were attending, bassist Twiggy Ramirez chipped in:

"Sarah Palin is a whore, yeah."

Palin the Whore

I actually agree with something he says. Sarah Palin is the spawn of the devil - mind you that's too nice for the sick fascist bitch she actually is. I've gone too far again - must lie down.

Haha

I couldn't agree more with Manson and Twiggy, at least they're not afraid to speak their minds.
I would probably sleep with her, just for the fun of it.

GO MANSON!!!!!!

I doubt that a guy who looks like a whore himself and wears far too much make up for a man will make any sort of impact , along with that dumbass bassist.
Rockstars dont mix with politics.

tards.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeees... I mean, it's a crazy, evil want a US president who wants peace than one who's essentially a more gun-toting version of Bush...

I blame fallout boy, bands that retarded shouldn't make political statements in their videos.

tards.

I want a US President who will pull the troops out of every country in the world. Defend the borders? Simple, stick units on the Mexcian border, and shoot any illegal who tries to sneak over the fence. Same with the Chinese on the West Coast.
The US then cut off ALL foreign aid to the rest of the world.
I'm sick of European cowards who whine when America stays out of a situation, yet when they get involved still whine.

The USA should tell the world to fuck off, and develop proper renewable energy resources, so we're not dependent on a bunch of Middle eastern barbarians.

Oh, and nuke Paris.

Sadly neither of the candidates have the balls to do this.

....... Because being attractive is sooooooooo much more important to the music industry than instrumental prowess, charisma and songwriting ability...

image-central bands are killing off interesting scenes daily. Something must be done. BRING BACK REVOLUTIONARY MUSIC IN KERRANG!!! BOYCOTT FALLOUT BOY FOR THEIR SUPPORT OF TYRANNY!!!!!!!

I wonder who would win in a fight between Marilyn Manson and 36 Crazyfists!

Isn't it a pity that one of the most picturesque states in the US is Republican *vomit*

Fuck that Obama Demo Rat.. And Sarah Palin's a hell of a more useful person than Manson. And probably would make better music too.

GO OBAMA!!!!!!!!!

Posted by Luke | October 24, 2008 11:34 AM | Reply to this

Wait how does what he said have any significane?

Does this just not show that Marilyn Manson knows jackshit about politics? Because all he can think to say is "she's a whore" rather than attack sarah palin's policies and say why she wouldn't be a good choice for vice president?

historic day

People, this is a historic day. For once in my life, I actually agree with something that Manson says. Usually everything he says is complete attention seeking crap (well this is well kinda) but Palin really is a whore. In her college days the woman wore a t-shirt saying "I may be broke but at least I'm not flat chested". Does anyone really want someone who is obviously that pathetic (and who is also gun happy and foreign counrty hating) to rule what is essentially, though I hate to admit it, the most powerful country in the world? That's scary people, just scary. At least Bush was stupid...

America needs a president who puts America first. That's not Obama.
And Palin would make a better president than Obama or Biden.

Wow! You can't even spell Biden! Gotta love them smart Obama supporters! Scary that we might get an idiot like that in the White House!

Oh yeah i'm sure it took alot of balls to sling mud at someone who isn't even there to defend himself. How exactly is she a whore? They should stick to making "extreme" music for whiny teenage faggots like April Green and the rest of you queers and leave opinions to people who have a brain. Twiggy lives in a fucking bungalo and MM looks like a starved 40 year old drag queen in a rainstorm. They can both get fucked with a shotgun and I hope Palin will be the one to pull the trigger.
